I wouldn't mind it but I really find it hard to enjoy David Thomas and his ramblings.

Steve, they are just match reports with a page on each game. It can be read in an hour or two.

Not if you're from Devon!

i have this book and i do exactly the same thing.best season ever. great football, some good footballers and a few decent ones a coach/manager managed to get the best out of. also have hundreds of programmes i look at occasionally which bring back great memories even from some average seasons. a yearly dvd review would be a great idea.i thought the club had a guy who films every match for training purposes, they could make a dvd from the recordings and either play the footage to music ala' soccer am or have someone from the club provide a retrospective commentary like a lot of dvd extras have.

Could TUFC not negotiate with the BBC to use clips from Radio Devon commentary? Or would needless red tape somehow prevent it? What about getting Dave Saunders or whoever to moonlight for the project by recording a narrative?

I daresay the small prospective sales revenue would make the whole thing unfeasible in any case

Thanks for that link Nick. Hell I'm a poet and I know it. lol
Anyway I looked it up on Amazon and just bought one for the princely sum of 1P. plus £2.80 P&P.
That seems a little steep but offset by being practically given it.
